This episode features Darwin-based artist Kristen Johnson (Chiggy), talking about Combining Art and Business.

Kristen is an Intuitive Artist. She paints using bright and bold colour and shapes allowing her intuition to guide her through playful exploration. Kristen’s inspiration comes from landscapes and the colours and shapes of nature.

The intuitive technique has been transformational for Kristen and she is now passionate about sharing and helping others let go of fear and just have a go.

Kristen also shares and teaches through small workshops where she provides a safe space for people to let go and explore their creativity through intuition, art and movement. Allowing them to let go of fear, old rules and expectations that may be preventing them from moving forward with their creativity, opening their heart and reviving their passions.
